Hi all,

I've already sent this email to openSUSE main list, but got no
response or advice. I'm hooping that this list will give a few
help/hints on what is going on.

I have several problems on my both openSUSE 10.2 installation. These
problems are just the ones I've found:


My immediate guess is that the problem is coming from the build
service packages. Everyone's on 10.3 these days, not sure if anyone is
actively using+testing the 10.2 packages. Why not upgrade to 10.3? =)


- Kopete doesn't even try to connect to my configured MSN accounts.
I've even tried to recompile kdenetwork3-3.5.8 and the results are the same.


Try removing your configuration settings for that user, then
restarting kopete, and trying again:

mv ~/.kde/share/config/kopeterc{,_old} && mv ~/.kde/share/apps/kopete{,_old}


- The sysinfo:/ on Konqueror does not work correctly - Strange
icons... the dvd doesn't appear, etc.


Screenshot? Does the DVD appear under media:/


- The ftp:/ on Konqueror does not work.


What error message? Timeout?


- If I insert a USB Pen or DVD there is no popup notifying that a
new media has been inserted and, as stated above, it will not be shown
on Konqueror's sysinfo:/

It is a OpenSUSE 10.2 installation, containing latest kde-3.5.8 from
the build service. I also have a lot of other repositories - mainly from
Build Service.

Both my home and work machines are showing the exact same behaviors
so, it is not a single machine's problem.
What could be wrong? Am I the only one with this problem ? Can
anyone help me on this ?


Haven't heard of anyone else having these problems... the KDE packages
in the build service are unsupported. Upgrading to 10.3 is a good idea
though. You can even install it from the live CD (easy option if you
have /home on a separate partition).

Kind thoughts,

The latest/current KDE packages from openSUSE Build Service solved this
problem.

Thanks all of you for your help
